The Guardians of the Millennium™ has been appointed an official umbrella project of the European Union's "Netd@ys" that will be distributed into approximately 50,000 schools in Europe in Fall 1999. The Guardians project will also be going into the United Nations' Cyberschoolbus online network that goes into schools in 136 countries. The Guardians project is already in schools across the United States working with various Distance Learning networks. They include the TEAMS Distance Learning Network that goes into schools in 29 states, reaching approximately 600,000 students and 6,000 teachers and is funded by the U.S. government. The Guardians web site has been developed with teachers across the U.S., England and Ireland. We project by Autumn 1999 we will reach a minimum of 15.75 million students worldwide between the ages of 8-14, and 700,000 teachers. We expect that number to grow considerably.

The Guardians of the Millennium™ is the brainchild of Vicki Lynn, a specialist in international television, satellite events and new media. She was, notably, one of the producers of LIVE AID, the interactive rock concert between Philadelphia and London, which was broadcast to one of the largest viewing audience in the history of television. Through her company, Satellite Events, with offices in the U.S. and Ireland, she has used her vast experience of international television and live satellite events to bring together an extraordinary team of experts from the worlds of television, education, Internet production, distance learning, multimedia game/product design, creative writing, animation and art.

We are working with a separate, nonprofit entity, the Online Educational Organization, Inc. (OEO) which is a 501 (c) (3) registered charity in Virginia. It was formed to promote charitable, environmental, literary and scientific purposes including, but not limited to, conducting worldwide distance learning for children over the Internet and teacher training. It is the nonprofit entity through which The Guardians of the Millennium™ is applying for grants within the United States. In Europe The Guardians of the Millennium™ is working with various educational institutions for grants and governmental support. All of this is in order to make The Guardians of the Millennium™ an exciting, topical, highly-focused product for the 21st century.
